Public service motivation (PSM) scholarship has mushroomed since the early 2000s. After initially being an exclusively Western field of study, scholarship has recently become more internationalised. As a corollary, scholars have begun to formulate a research agenda for advancing non-Western PSM research. To contribute to this advancement, and examine how non-Western PSM scholarship has developed in recent years, we conduct a systematic literature review of 83 empirical studies published between 2015 and 2020. We assess origin of scholarship, theories, samples and methodologies used, and empirical findings on the relation between PSM and key antecedents and outcomes. Our findings show that non-Western PSM scholarship is growing, and increasingly using contextual variables to explain variance in findings in comparison with Western studies. That being said, ample opportunity remains for leveraging contextual and regional particularities to build a more distinct body of scholarship. We conclude with suggestions for further advancing non-Western PSM research.

自2000年代初以来，公共服务动机（PSM）奖学金迅速增加。在最初只是西方的专门研究领域之后，奖学金最近变得更加国际化。作为推论，学者们已经开始制定研究议程以推进非西方的PSM研究。为了推动这一进步，并研究近年来非西方PSM奖学金的发展情况，我们对2015年至2020年间发表的83项实证研究进行了系统的文献综述。我们评估了奖学金的来源，所使用的理论，样本和方法，以及关于PSM与关键先决条件和结果之间关系的实证研究结果。我们的发现表明，非西方的PSM奖学金正在增长，并且越来越多地使用上下文变量来解释与西方研究相比的发现差异。话虽如此，仍然有充分的机会利用背景和地区的特殊性来建立更加独特的学术体系。最后，我们提出了进一步推进非西方PSM研究的建议。
